## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".
## **Objectives and activities**
## **Principal activity**
The principal activity of the charity in the year under review was that of conserving and protecting cetaceans and their habitats.
## **Objects**
The charity's objects as set out in the Articles of Association are :
- To promote, by means that are exclusively charitable and for public benefit, the conservation and protection of cetaceans (dolphins, whales and porpoises) by actively assisting in the development of community projects to alleviate injury, sickness, ill-treatment, neglect or threat to animals and their environment.
- To advance public education, in particular by providing educational and research programmes that raise public awareness both nationally and internationally, of the problems and solutions facing cetaceans and their natural environment including but not limited to natural habitat degradation, welfare concerns, and wildlife loss.
## **WCA's Vision**
A World where cetaceans are only found in the wild, are respected and fully protected, and live in sustainable habitats and in harmony with people everywhere.
## **WCA's Mission**
Through cooperation, the Partners of the World Cetacean Alliance aim to conserve and protect cetaceans and their habitats. By phasing out captivity and seeking to protect cetaceans in the world’s oceans, seas and rivers, we are a global community of people who care for cetaceans, study and respect them.
## **WCA's Values**
- Respect and acknowledge the experience, skills, opinions and autonomy of all our Partners, whether they are Individuals, For-Profit (whale watching companies) or Non Profit Organizations.
- Findings that are based on sound science.
- Collaborative work to build information resources that are valuable to our Partners and the wider stakeholder community working to protect cetaceans.
- Strong financial, logistical, legal and political stability and support to ensure cetaceans are conserved for future generations.
- A spirit of cooperation and transparency in all our dealings.

## **WORLD CETACEAN ALLIANCE**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_
## **WCA's Strategic Goals**
- To prevent the population reduction or extinction of any cetacean.
- To protect critical habitat including key breeding, feeding and migratory areas for cetaceans.
- To prevent humankind’s deliberate or accidental killing of any cetacean.
- To raise the profile of the issues affecting cetaceans and their habitats through advocacy, publicity, public outreach and global information distribution.
- To promote responsible whale and dolphin watching as an opportunity to learn, inspire and educate, on trips that are as low impact as possible.
- To prevent any cetacean being held in captivity except for rehabilitation and sanctuary purposes.
- To work with governments, politicians, members of the public and industry to realize the Alliance’s mission and to campaign publicly and through political offices as necessary.
- To encourage a global community of people who care for cetaceans and who learn about and respect them.
- To expand the capacity, knowledge and experience of our Partners to act effectively on behalf of cetaceans and their habitats by representing their interests and supporting their work.
## **Public Benefit statement**
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
## **Achievements and performance**
The year provide us with plenty of challenges as the world went into pandemic lockdown. A lot of our partners were struggling so we introduced a membership fee moratorium, for several months. However despite the challenges, WCA was able to maintain its work and continue to develop and grow its principal projects.
The local Brighton project received a number of local grants and we were able to expand the volunteer team helping to deliver its objectives.
The Whale Heritage Site project with the introduction of a full time project manager was able to continue in strength with 3 more locations coming on board. We hope in the next few years this will be a bench mark project that brings communities and the protection of local cetaceans together providing a benefit to all. The World Animal Protection (WAP) grant was instrumental in helping this project continue.
The start of the year saw the increased development and implementation of our whale watching certification, encouraging our whale watching partners to self-audit against our whale watching guidelines. In the first few months there was a constant review and fine tuning of the project, particularly in regard to moving to a different fee paying scheme in line with the certification role out. As the year progressed we were able to bring clarity as more and more partners certified under the auditing scheme, demonstrating a success in the project.
Last year’s partner survey highlighted the importance of education as one of the key missions for WCA. A new project sponsored by Noble Caledonia saw the development of an online course looking at ship strikes. We plan to bring more courses online that will help spread awareness and knowledge about the marine issues we try to resolve, as well as becoming another valuable income source towards ever more effective projects.
At the end of the year, Dylan Walker announced his wish to step down as CEO for WCA. Dylan has been CEO since the beginning and we simply would not be where we are today if it was for his dedication. Dylan will be staying with WCA but focussing on more project level work. We started looking for a replacement in earnest that will continue to drive WCA forward.

## **WORLD CETACEAN ALLIANCE**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)**
## **(CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_
WCA continues to operate with a small but dedicate staff team. We welcomed Steff Eaton as a part time office manager but having seen what she brought to the team upgrade her role to operation manager looking after the administration and day-to-day management of the organization, allowing Sophie to dedicate more of her time to project development.
In many ways 2020 was a year of external challenges and internal change and revaluation. For the first time in a couple of years we have manged to finish the year with a reserve surplus and are therefore in a strong position for continued growth and development.
## **Financial review**
Financially, WCA is still operating with limited resources so is unable to carry out all the projects it hoped for. Our main source of income is from grants and income generation projects like the certification programmes.
At the end of the year the charity's unrestricted reserves stood at £12,403 (2019: £6,552 deficit). The charity is supported by it's creditors.
## **Reserves**
Ideally, the charity would maintain unrestricted reserves at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. However, the charity is still a fledgling charity and has not yet been able to build any reserves.
## **Risks**
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
## **Structure, governance and management**
The charity is a company limited by guarantee.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year were: Roger Mann Suzanne Rogers Ian Lewis (Appointed 7 January 2020)
The Board of Trustees appoint new trustees, seeking opinion and advice from the CEO and internal global council which is an elected representation of our membership.
None of the trustees has any beneficial interest in the company. All of the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £10 in the event of a winding up.
The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss.
